Coming from a small factory in Columbus, Ohio is this handmade, woollen cycling cap designed to decorate your head whilst keeping it warm at the same time. They are used to cold winters in Columbus and this winter bonnet has a slightly different cut to your normal cycling cap, covering a bit more of your head, the hat pulls down that bit further keeping it nice and snug and with the soft wool rear flap down over your ears you should be able to brave some pretty cold weather before your ears fall off.

Made from 100 percent recycled fabrics it has a worn-in feel and soft touch, no scratchy yarns pestering your scalp just instant comfort. It isn't water proof but it does dry out fast and it does keep your head warm, very warm, but even if you are someone who gets a bit sweaty, the wool wicks your damp noggin nicely.

The cap is constructed with four main panels, a front bill and a rear flap, all of which can be chosen in the colour/pattern of your choice making it fully customisable (as long as they have the fabric!). Every Octopus hat has a secret pocket allowing you to stash some of your hard earned dollar bills. With the cap so close fitting to your head you can't hide much more than a few notes in the secret pocket without it looking like you need a tumour removed.

Here's how we roll at road.cc:

Every product is thoroughly tested for as long as it takes to get a real insight into whether it works or not. Our reviewers are experienced cyclists that we trust to be objective, and we strive to ensure that all opinions expressed are backed up by facts, but reviews are always a reviewer's informed opinion, not a definitive verdict. We don't intentionally try to break anything (except locks) but we do try to look for weak points in any design. The overall score is not just an average of the other scores. It reflects both a product's function and value. Good scores are more common than bad, because fortunately good products are more common than bad. Here's what they mean:
